 I am looking for secure winter storage for my motor boat in the Villefranche area.

Over the summer, after the hardships of quarantine, I have reached out on Facebook proposing to teach people crochet for free, and this has been the highlight of my summer - I have met some amazing people, and it so rewarding to see people learn a new skill! I am planning on continuing free classes - but the space in my kitchen is limited... So I am also going to run a few paid workshops (crochet and macramé) in the creative space "Les Socquettes de l'Archiduchesse" in Biot. I also knit very well :) So if you would like to learn a new craft, dust up on your skills or just meet fellow crafters, please don't be shy. We also have a Facebook group...

Are there any golf societies in the area? I am looking for playing partners.Thanks,  Kevin

I will be arriving in Greece soon and will be based in Piraeus for the summer. I am an avid fresh water fisherman and on my days off I would love to go recreational fishing (catch and release). I have looked online and can not seem to find any information to see if this is possible. Is it possible to go Largemouth/Black bass/Carp/Catfish fishing, and if so do you know where I might be able to go and do this? I have a house in Cyprus and go Carp and Bass fishing on the reservoirs there.

Hello,I'm going with my family to the Cote d'Azur in the first 2 weeks of July and would like to know where are the best beaches in terms of:- not being too packed;- clean water.In Fréjus or in Juan-les-Pins? By far the main factor for me is for it not to be too packed with people. If none of them is recommendable, which area would you recommend?Thanks a lot!Pedro.
